    M&P 9mm: Who Do I Have Fix It?

    Hi all, Some time ago I purchased an M&P 9mm, 4.25". While I have been very happy with the gun in terms of reliability (500+ rounds so far and not a single malfunction) and ergonomics (fits my hand well and my wife's too), I have serious concerns about the POI. Some might remember a similar...

    Hi all, I was curious what folks use for a CC holster for a standard 1911 Government 5". I know it is fairly large and heavy, but for those who do choose to carry this, what holster do you use? -TR

    1911: Failure to Feed

    Hi all, So recently I picked up a SW1911 blued 108285. Brought it to the range this past weekend and it ran perfect, POI=POA, fed 150 WWB FMJs and 50 WWB JHPs with absolutely no problem. Then yesterday I shot it again, to celebrate the 4th, and put 60 FMJs and 8 JHPs through it. On one...

    Springfield 1911: Model from Serial #?

    Hi All, I was at my LGS today and they were selling brand new Springfield 1911 Mil-Spec models for $680. I put a hold on one. I came home, however, and noticed that they also had a used Springfield 1911 for $575. They did not have the model listed, however, and my thoughts are that it is...

    .22 Revolver for the Wife

    All, I'm relatively new to the shooting scene and my wife is even newer. She likes shooting, but she has very small hands and the recoil on larger calibers unnerves her. She's used a .22 revolver before, some Smith version, and enjoyed it very much. However I have tried to get her into .38...

    Smith Model 19: Light Hits

    Hi All, I have a model 19-3 that I picked up one month ago in Nickel that I love. I am not the original owner (wasn't born yet lol) so I don't know all of its passed history. However I am noticing that on less than top shelf ammunition (i.e. Remington golden sabres work every time but not...

    9mm HD: 124 gr + p vs. 147 gr

    Hi all, So just like the title says. I am trying to pick out some 9mm ammo for home defense (for all of the 9mm haters I have higher caliber options if needed, but I like lots of options). I am talking jhps and I want maximum expansion with good but not over penetration. I know the 124 +p is...

    S&W: M&P 9mm Shooting Low

    Hi all, I just recently bought a S&W M&P 9mm. In my first outing with it, it worked very well. Fed and ejected FMJs and JHPs with no issue. However I did notice I was shooting about a few inches low from POA. Now this was in the woods so the ground isn't perfectly level and I make no claims...

    CZ 75 Malfunction

    I recently purchased a CZ 75BD. First off I wanted to say the gun has been pleasant to shoot. I did have a question though. I run into the following issue while reloading. If I seat the magazine by driving it home with a smack, I wouldn't say I am slamming it, the slide springs forward...

    CZ 75 for Revolver User

    Hi all, I am fairly traditional in my firearm usage, I typically use a S&W Model 19, but I've decided to branch out and join the world of semi-autos (I do shoot semi autos frequently, I just don't own one). In doing some research and visiting some shops I've decided upon the CZ 75B. That's not...
